Last night I released v2.5 of Markdown on Save Improved, which will be the last release of my most popular plugin. I’m retiring it because MoSI v3 is essentially the Markdown module in Jetpack, which I also wrote.

MoSI v2.5 includes a conversion utility to migrate all of your Markdown posts to work with the format that Jetpack’s Markdown module expects. Nothing would have broken, this just lets you keep previous unconverted Markdown revisions. Speaking of which, here’s some of the additional goodness Jetpack’s Markdown module will bring you compared to MoSI:

Plays nicely with revisions

Always on: MoSI merely defaulted to enabled on a per-post basis. Now you just turn it on for the whole blog.

The plugin hadn’t been updated in an embarrassingly long time, but I finally got around to fixing some bugs around mobile publishing and updating the included Markdown Extra library to the latest version. It won’t go without updates so long again.
